I listened to every (non-holiday) @MariahCarey album. Here’s my thoughts:
I get the feeling Mariah was treated much more kindly than Whitney. Across the board - private life scrutiny, genre fluidity, tolerance for change in vocal performance.
However - it seems Mariah may have gotten a raw deal on her earlier (genius) albums, bc Charmbracelet and Heartbreaker were a lot of the same and possibly made out of a need to earn.
Her *best* album (to me, overall): Daydream. No one’s touching her pen or her voice, okay?!
The most enjoyable thing for me in listening to her albums is just the diversity! Pop, R&B, soul, power ballads, simp music - you want it, Mariah’s got it.
And now, a thread of iconic memes related to our queen, the skinny legend, who definitely doesn’t know any of us.

My favorite fact about Mariah Carey: my boyfriend @ekinthebay’s grandmother used to babysit her when she was growing up in Brooklyn!
